    "content": "I am sure that is why the Government of Kenya does not want to extend the two year agreement for Essar. That is because of the nature of that deal. We want Parliament to investigate within a limited time. If we do not do that, Essar is camping at Government offices waiting for an extension. I want to prove to the country that for the last 33 months that Essar was in this deal, the peole of Kenya have lost Kshs15 billion. We have the comparison of the price of fuel when we go through the refinery and Essar and when we directly refine petroleum. Why should Kenyans pay Kshs5 extra for petrol, diesel and kerosene? This is because somebody somewhere is getting the money. You directed that I appear before the Committee but the Committee did not give me the chance. Now, I want you to further direct that within ten days, they bring a report and my colleague and I be the first persons to appear before the Committee to tell the country how big people in the last Government, together with Essar, ripped of the country through scandals similar to the Goldenberg and the Anglo Leasing. We must stop this as Parliament."
